3
Question What are the 4 layers of the Earth? List them.
4
Answer 1 – 10 Crust Mantle Inner core Outer core
5
Question Draw a picture of the Earth’s interior layers and label them as solid or liquid
6
Answer 1 – 20
7
Question What elements make up the core?
8
Answer 1 – 30 Iron and nickel
9
Question Name the two types of crust and tell me which one is THICKER?
10
Answer 1 – 40 Oceanic and continental crust Continental is thicker
11
Question Draw a picture of the Earth’s interior and label the following: Inner core Outer core Crust Mantle Asthenosphere Lithosphere Mesosphere
12
Answer 1 – 50
13
Question Who developed the theory of continental drift?
14
Answer 2 – 10 Alfred Wegener
15
Question What does “continental dift” mean?
16
Answer 2 – 20 The gradual movement of the continents from being connected in Pangea to where they are located today
17
Question What is Pangea?
18
Answer 2 – 30 The single land mass that once connected all of our continents
19
Question What other theory explains HOW continental drift occurred?
20
Answer 2 – 40 Sea-Floor spreading
21
Question Give me 2 SPECIFIC pieces of evidence that supports the theory of continental drift.
22
Answer 2 – 50 Fossils: Rocks Mesosaurus in SA and Africa
Glossopteris fossils in SA and Africa Land snails on both sides of the ocean Rocks Rock folding Coal layers Glacier scratches
23
Question What is sea-floor spreading?
24
Answer 3 – 10 Sea-floor spreading explain how continental drift occurred through the creation of new sea-floor crus and the destruction of old sea-floor crust, which created movement of the continents
25
Question 3 - 20 What is happening at the arrow?
You must use the following words in your answer: Midocean ridge Rift valley Magma
26
Answer 3 – 20 Magma is oozing from the mantle in the rift valley in between the mid-ocean ridges
27
Question Draw a picture of “subduction”
28
Answer 3 – 30
29
Question Give me 1 piece of evidence that says that sea-floor spreading is occurring.
30
Answer 3 – 40 The age of the rocks increase the farther away you get from the mid-ocean ridge The line-up of the magnetic minerals showing the Earth’s magnetic field is symmetrical on both sides
31
Question What types of plate boundaries are there in the sea-floor spreading model?
32
Answer 3 – 50 Convergent and divergent
33
Question How many major plates do we have on earth?
34
Answer 4 – 10 seven
35
Question Tectonic plate = crust + upper mantle = _____
36
Answer 4 – 20 lithosphere
37
Question What are the 3 types of plate boundaries? Include a picture of each….
38
Answer 4 – 30 Divergent Convergent Transform
39
Question What occurs as a result of transform plate boundaries?
40
Answer 4 – 40 Earthquakes
41

42
Answer 4 – 50 Convergent Divergent
ocean trenches, volcanic islands, and mountains Divergent mid-ocean ridges and new oceans
43
